Ingredients

  • spices
  • herbs
  • vinegar

Instructions

  1. Start with a clean bottle or jar.
  2. Add any spices first.If using garlic, ginger or garlic ~ drop in next.
  3. Add the fresh herbs.
  4. I use a chopstick or a bamboo/wooden skewer to poke at the herbs to settle down into the jar.
  5. Add the vinegar to ½ inch below the top of the container.Use the chopstick or skewer to poke at the herbs to ensure that they are completely submerged.

  6. If using nettles, dill or other leafy herb; add last so that the spices will stay submerged in the vinegar.

  7. It is actually ready at this point but the infusion will be more flavourful if allowed to sit for 4-6 weeks.

Recipe Notes

NOTE: if the vinegar is topped up after each use, to ensure that the botanicals are not exposed to air, the vinegar will keep for up to 6 months.
(Confession: I have vinegars that are 2-3 years old, that are just fine)
